Rewiring Org Structure for Speed and Focus: An AI-Native Executive Playbook

In the AI era, speed and focus are no longer optional — they’re existential. Traditional org models designed for predictability and control often slow decision-making, dilute accountability, and make it harder for teams to capitalize on AI’s accelerating potential. Executives and engineering leaders now face a new mandate: rewire organizational structures to move at AI speed while keeping teams aligned to a clear sense of purpose. This roundtable will dive into the AI-native executive playbook for organizational design, exploring:

• How to reshape team topology to maximize velocity without losing cohesion.
• Where to place AI talent — embedded in product teams, centralized in platforms, or hybrid centers of excellence.
• Strategies for balancing experimentation with governance and risk management.
• The evolving role of leaders in enabling focus, clarity, and trust when AI reshapes how work gets done.

This session brings together engineering and product executives to share practical approaches for rewiring org structures in an AI-native world. We’ll discuss emerging models, trade-offs, and leadership strategies that enable organizations to move faster, stay focused, and capture the full advantage of AI as both a capability and a cultural shift.
